        I've seen many messages here about LED vers
Incandescent, and thought I'd share this letter with you:

"June 27, 1994

        Thank you for you [SIC] interest in Hewlett-Packard
Components and our recent technology announcement of high
performance LEDs using TS AlInGap.

"For the first time in the history of LEDs, these products
surpass the light efficiency of incandescent lights (25
lumens/watt vs. 15 lumens/watt).  This breakthrought [SIC]
technology means that you can now replace incandescent lamps
with LEDs at a comparable cost.  Plus you gain the benefit
of LEDs that have an extremely long lifetime.

        Daniel I. Kolody
